Sructured programming is a programming approach that emphasizes writing clear, logical, and well-organized code by breaking problems into smaller, manageable parts. It relies on a step-by-step flow of execution using three main control structures: sequence (executing instructions in order), selection (making decisions using statements like if, else, and switch), and iteration (repeating tasks using loops such as for, while, and do-while). This approach encourages the use of functions to divide programs into reusable modules, which improves readability, reduces errors, and makes testing and debugging easier. By learning structured programming, students develop strong problem-solving skills and gain the ability to write efficient, reliable, and maintainable programs, especially using languages like C.
